Tokyo (Japanese: 東京, Hepburn: Tōkyō) is the capital city of Japan. It was also the location of a major Kaiju attack by Onibaba in 2016.[2][1]

History[]

Three years into the Kaiju War, Tokyo is attacked by the Kaiju Onibaba. Despite the efforts of the Japanese military, Onibaba devastates the city and kills millions of people during its rampage; among the victims killed are the parents of Mako Mori, who was eleven at the time. After Onibaba spots Mako crying for her parents and corners her in an alleyway, the Mark-1 Jaeger Coyote Tango is deployed into the city and successfully kills the Kaiju, saving Mako's life.

Due to the level of destruction caused to the city by Onibaba's attack, the Pan Pacific Defense Corps formally decides to construct a Shatterdome in the area. On December 15, 2016, seven months after Onibaba's attack, the Tokyo Shatterdome is established.[2][3]
